    Short ram air intake

    I have a question on how to make a short ram air intake for my 87 LX-I FI. I have heard that you can use a short ram tube for a 92-95(i think) Civic but i was looking at my filter and it is located between the motor and the firewall. How can i make on then. I would really appreciate your help. thanks

    When you put an intake on, you remove all that plastic tubing stuff and the intake goes right into the throttle body (the filter gets removed). You just have to cut 3-4 inches off of the civic intake to get it to fit.

    Just plug all three lines into the tube drill holes and use grommits if needed the big PCV hose and the 2 small vacume hoses.
